"ABC News reported that Foley’s office said he routinely asked interns and job applicants for photographs. But when the Times asked Foley about the emails nearly a year ago, he did not mention that practice.
He said he was merely trying to be friendly and did not mean to make the boy uncomfortable.
Foley has had email exchanges with at least one other former page who told the Times he was surprised to get an email from a congressman.
Jason Kello, a spokesman for Foley’s campaign, portrayed the controversy as a political attack.
“There have not been any allegations made by ANYONE except by Tim Mahoney and the Democrats who are attempting to misrepresent a series of innocent communications to prop up a failing political campaign,” Kello said in a statement.
“This is nothing more than a political attack and an attempt at the worst kind of character assassination.”"
